There is this old VHS of my great grandmother sliding down a slide at the park. She was 95 in the video, and I absolutely adore it. She died when I was very young, but there is something about this old film that brings me closer to her. I think about that a lot. How I can feel closer to someone I barely knew because of this tiny film, photos, and post cards she had written about her travels? She loved greatly, was bold, and was an artist. She inspired me to chase my dreams of traveling and being a creative. As I’ve grown and matured in this business, I understand that everything that is captured now will be cherished forever; that somewhere in your lineage a little girl may watch your love story and be inspired to live their best life.

I come from a long line of bold women, full of zest and a love for life, and I’ve carried the lessons they’ve taught me and bring them to not only my personal life, but my professional life as well. Light, laughter, and enthusiasm that comes from within. I love and celebrate with all that I am. I bring authenticity and a sense of the real. I don’t know how to be anything else.  


Moments. Core memories are moments that we want to remember for a lifetime. Some of my core memories are learning how to ride a bike, graduating from college, eating pizza in Italy, hiking the Great Wall, falling in love with my husband, and having children. Because I am a mother of 4 little boys I understand the weight of a moment. Moments feel a little more tangible when you become a mom. Time becomes a little more delicate, and you see how quickly once a sweet little babe turns into a little boy with worn-knee jeans and watermelon stained t-shirts. 

Since 2014 I have been able to tell the greatest love stories. I have been a witness to some of the happiest moments of people’s lives. I have been there to capture those moments and then turn those moments into memories. It has been my greatest joy and such a fulfilling part of who I am today. I have cried, laughed, and enjoyed such intimate moments shared between loved ones.

q&A

Once you have paid your 50% deposit and signed your contract your date will be officially booked!!

When I film your wedding, I will have two cameras set up on tripods on either side. I will then have a third camera on a gimbal moving around during the ceremony to catch all the important moments.

I’ve got you covered. Every wedding collection includes drone footage (if weather permits) I am a licensed drone pilot and know my way around flying a drone to get those awesome bird’s eye view of your day.

Your timeline is the most important thing about your day to your planner, photographer, and your videographer. The more detailed you are about your timeline, the better. I am here to help customize the timeline to fit your needs so that we can make sure your day goes as smoothly as possible.

Anywhere within a 50-mile radius to Bozeman, MT is on me! After that we will take in account of mileage, if I need to stay overnight, airline, etc. I book everything myself and include it in your package so that you won’t have any fees afterwards.

Unfortunately, no. I pay for music rights and will be choosing the music to your video. I always try to get a feel for you as a couple and what kind of music fits your vibe. Music is one of the most important things when I create a video. I take my time to try and f ind the perfect one that fits you!

I found myself with a morning off work so decided to revisit our wedding video - it’s like I’m watching it brand new every time I see it! Sami's skill & talent is immeasurable - just masterful!
